  It's hard to believe based on that video that the knee injury was caused by such an innocuous bump with the Visma car - Pogi didn't even fall or hit his knee on anything.

  That Vuelta was fantastic. The little team that could, and did!

  Team Visma lease a bike must structure their race the way that Alpecin-Premier Tech does it. Working it around the race outcome rather than the strongest rider. As I've said before, Alpecin-Premier Tech have the structure: Jasper Philipsen (bunch sprint) Kaden Groves (reduced bunch sprint) Mathieu van der Poel (small group sprint). It has worked to perfection. Visma must use a similar structure: Matthew Brennan (bunch sprint/reduced bunch sprint) Christophe Laporte (reduced bunch sprint/small group sprint) Wout van Aert (small group sprint) Mattias Jørgensen (solo). Though they lack van der Poel, they've got a broader spectrum of riders. Done properly, Visma can win their first monument since Liège 2020 by tactically outwitting Alpecin-Premier Tech and UAE. None of these 4 were at Sanremo last year and they are all big hitters on form.

  This is the best race of the season.The only one where Tadej faces his equal and you can flip a coin as to who wins.The TDF is all Tadej all the time.

  It's the Robin Hood sequel. The one where Robin Hood overcomes his qualms and decides to partner with the Sheriff of Nottingham

  You never know... maybe Jonas wanted to test his sprinting form out. From how he rode away from the rest on the other two stages it doesn't make sense that he'd not be able to drop Lenny on the final stage. Jonas was so dominant that he had the freedom to play with the race, just as Mathieu did in Tirreno. He could have been preparing for the situation where he has to sprint against Pogačar, in which case that aspect isn't going too well... Also, there is no way that Prudhomme wouldn't get a platform - he's the director of the biggest race in the world. That also means that he want to steer the discussion towards an interesting Tour. He wouldn't exactly say "Pogačar will dominate the Tour and it'll be boring, while the Giro, Vuelta and the classics will be heart-in-mouth races" now would he?

  Good points but unfortunately Jasper's look of determination now is often caused by the desire to prove himself once more and return back to the top, which he's not doing a very good job of now. The way Jonathan Milan stormed that final was scary.

  Dani (who finished 2nd at the '24 Giro) was part of the group favoured by the wind, and Georg (who won a stage of that Giro) made the split too. Kévin didn't and was at one point 1:45 behind. He did most of the pulling to close the gap. Red Bull's performance on that stage was nothing but impressive - if not for Jonas it'd have certainly been the most dominant team performance of the century. 5 riders from one team leaving the rest behind like it's a junior race.

  Dani Martinez, the domestique for Remco beat him by 2 minutes and a nobody called Georg beat him for podium. How is that called a revival?
